Same story here. I was transferred to the first guy's supervisor and I asked for a call-back number. He gave me (02) 9191 6553. I put this into Google and arrived here. It's the second time I have been called by this mob. The first time I just hung up but I was curious to see where it was going. I'm glad I came to WhoCallsMe!

My partner got a call from a man claiming to be Mason Jones, after talking to him for what seemed like ages, about how our computer was going to crash any moment, if we don't fix it. He claimed to be from Microsoft company. Soon enough l found my partner on the computer typing in various things, they were requesting him to do. Strangly enough l was suspicious. It was 6.30pm and microsoft do not call so l thought it was a scam. But my partner wasn't so sure either, he stayed on the line, he got put onto someone else claiming to be called Kevin Smith, Got him to log onto www.logmein123 which my partner did, but having firewall protection helped as they couldnot access our computer. After failed attemps they suggested that we need to pay $219 so that they could fix the problems on our computer, if it don't want it to crash.
My partner was very sly at this moment and said, well the bloody thing can crash, l don't care, I'd rather go back to no computer. There is no way i'm paying money to you. How do l know if you are who you say you are. then he rattled off an address 1 Epping Road, North Ryde, NSW 2113. And also this phone number (02) 9191 6553 My partner started to get a bit angry with him, as it had been around 1 hour or so on the phone already. When the man knew he wasn't going to get anywhere he hung up out of the blue, We immediately called back the number and they said it was Microsoft. we rang a friend whom said he got the same call 6 weeks ago, and it is a SCAM.

Me too and she said she was from the Windows Service Centre, not Microsoft. I work in IT and nothing they said sounded right. How can my PC be infected at this time when it wasn't even turned on or linked to the ISP! Avoid this with something many times longer than a barge pole

We also recieved a very similar phone call, Sat 26 in the evening claiming she worked for iTech assist. Very dodgy!

I was called by a guy with an indian voice. My mum said it was someone calling about viruses on my computer but forgot to mention the fact that he didn't mention his company or anything. He led me through the steps including the www.logmein123.com and I didn't think anything of it which is where my main problem is. Once that was done I obviously wasn't thinking as I gave him my name phone number and e-mail address. Now that I have thought it over I made a huge mistake and am waiting for the spam/virus/trojan bomb via e-mail and giving away information was very bad. I guess I'll have to reset all passwords change e-mail and get my computer checked.

Beware, got same call today, got me to go through all the same motions, as soon as I stated I had just googled the number she finally gave me after countless questions on my behalf and told her she is a smammer, she hung up immediately. She was an Indian sounding woman also, saying she was from Microsoft and my computer is full of viruses. Definately beware.
